Rutile With Sphene and Albite
This is a bizarre Pakistani specimen, quite different from any rutile I have seen before from this region. It is a very aesthetic piece with a crosshatched cluster of pipelike (for lack of a better word) rutile crystals that runs along the plate of albite and green sphenes, like irrigation pipes with a few outlets sticking up here and there. I believe this to be a fairly significant rutile for this famous alpine-type deposit, as it is large, interesting, and of display quality. Ex. Richard Kosnar collection (he specialized in minerals of the world's alpine type deposits).
